Rampage Jackson: PRIDE wanted Wanderlei Silva to beat me in the past | ESPN

Ariel Helwani speaks with Quinton “Rampage” Jackson about his upcoming fourth fight with Wanderlei Silva at Bellator 206 in September. Jackson recaps his previous bouts with Silva back in PRIDE where he felt the promotion wanted him to lose their third fight in the UFC that Jackson won via knockout. Rampage talks about life as a heavyweight and fighting at age 40, then jokingly asks Ariel to call him as sir in the future.

Hey man, he's been in a lot of fights with his back against the wall getting thumped in the face

[@luckystrike-zz9sh]

That's called alpha male head unlike the beta ariel

[@lordofthebeltsthereturnoft1127]

Different people have different head shapes. Some people have the back of their head more flat, other it's more rounded. Some people have the top of their head flat, others it's kind of angled at the top, like has a slight point. Some people have wide heads, some narrow and long instead. All different types.

the chemistry is real, this clip had me smiling :)

[@TarekElsakka]

"You've gotta sir me". lmao

[@robertosheldon9061]

Rampage was more than hilarious in A-Team. That entire movie was quite awesome and yet nobody seemed to have appreciated it much. Too bad we never got a sequel and prolly never will. Loved that movie. Its one of those movies that somehow managed to be really funny while also being very serious and dark at times. Ruthless. With style though. And the one liners and funny interactions truely were funny in that movie which is rare. Usually directors just cannot create really fun dialogues. Ill never understand why that movie as a financial failure or at least not popular enough to warrant a sequel. I loved it.

[@julioelchavez2889]

Rampage should just go to Japan and take the role of the new bob sapp. He’d make millions easy doing commercials and losing fights on purpose

[@czourides]

Julio El Chavez Lol

[@MetalSword95]

Rampage dont do that bs

[@1gotenks]

Such quality potato they're filming on

[@1gotenks]

lol what does the video quality have to do with rampage

[@michaelr.4878]

Who gives a shit about the quality of the video. Just watch and listen to it. The content is still the same..regardless of the picture quality. Just be happy you can watch it.

Peter Tyrell when he was like “I’m not close to 265” I was just so confused ngl he’s at least 245 atm

6:25 vintage Rampage. please never change brotha lol

[@INKovari]

Can I get some HD video?

[@SubMitch24]

MMAs cutest couple! 😍

[@DeepSooth]

There's a certain spark missing from Rampage now in his persona, he's a genuinely nice guy and one of my favourite fighters ever. I do hope he's good personally.

[@rendonrjr]

When you get older testosterone goes down.

[@jmob3292]

Rampage got just a little fat on him but he still bustin people up.

[@yadpreetcheema4806]

damn rampage is a lot more mellow than back in the day.

[@couldyoupassthesaltplease.2006]

Rampage looks like he just ate 6 roast beef sandwiches, two large sausage pizzas and a large place of spaghetti before this interview.

[@loyaltyneto]

6:26 your welcome

[@kaydee2126]

LN not being funny but for what

[@deonzichtbaredaan6478]

Noiice

[@khalidalshammari6309]

Yo rampage is changing he seems a bit chilled and not the old crazy rampage or he’s just really tired 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@jessenasmith4843]

I remember rampage saying in an interview that he regrets getting famous because he became distant from his family. Its good to see him talking about his kids and dad.

[@Azeroth83]

Rampage is old and humble. He lost the fire of the first years. He gonna fight just for the cash and the next holidays with family.

[@jacobmarai7155]

Helwani doesn't often shake hands........ tactical mic hand swap at the end to show respect to Sir Rampage with a handshake.

[@dgame0007]

Ahhhhh this brought so many happy memories! Of the good old ufc days!! Guys like someone said appreciate rampage while he is here as for Ariel glad he is back leading the pack!! He is the best at these interviews

[@Sanji_Vinsmoke_69]

Damn rampage used to be sp happy and full of joy. He seems so different now.. just, seems like he's feeling down smh

[@714OCDreams]

Sanji Vinsmoke tired man all the media and obligations and he said he has sleeping problems couldnt sleep the night before i can relate cus my mind races as well and i never get good sleep i always look like that. .

[@Bdpjev]

Rampage is a clown at heart. Sir clown. This dude got balls of steel. To have to face your fear like that 4 times in a row and perform with confidence is no small task.

[@robd1811]

Rampage is so much more somber here his mind might be heading towards retirement I hope he wins prime rampage was a beast one of my favorites

[@smoothcriminal4038]

We've come a long way Yes we have But i still want to fight you sometimes 😆 😆 😆 😆

[@MackV99]

Rampage lookin chubby, better watch that cardio!

[@jackgallagher1963]

Remember watching these two in New York I think it was eating pastrami at some restaurant if Ariel ever gets in trouble you just know who he’s calling his good old mate rampage! ☺️

[@dandan9134]

He is very humble now :)

[@yeahbraah]

Even though rampage gained alot of weight he looks in good health for his age for a fighter. He will beat wanderlei his chin is gone.

[@thereisnopandemic]

Used to be a huge Wanderlei fan, I’m going for Rampage this time. He seems like a better guy. K.O him Jackson.

[@acdclife94]

Rampage is being shy with Ariel. Dude used to joke around with him a lot. Guess it’s been a while

[@MrButchersTube]

They say the camera adds 10lbs. So how many cameras did rampage eat?

[@joeyowngoal5210]

Rampage looking like he hasn’t done cardio since the 90,s

[@carlosc.1568]

*ARIEL GETTING BLACKED BY RAMPAGE* as always

[@branlee8]

Stand and bang. Good match up.. too late in the game for either to change tactics..

[@Frank79811]

Rampage is always so fun. Enjoy this guy while you can.

[@lol-fd9fj]

I like this rampage, still funny but nice and chill.

[@theengineer704]

Rampage is a Classic fighter. It’s great seeing him. He looks stronger. All the best Dude.

[@MikeRthe1]

Awww that was mildly touching

[@mexicanamerican8062]

As a former fighter but a take um as they come fighter still. Ive always liked rampage style of fighting i see me in him an hes a good guy. Good Luck sir!

[@krb0123]

man this just makes me happy as shit seeing these two still doing interviews together. time flies

[@Canel062_]

a day in memphis with Quinton Jackson, bring it Ariel!

[@Pingaheimer]

Rampage has matured lol...... good thing for Ariel.

[@thebeast1287]

Rampage lost the fire he does not act like the old rampage anymore

[@diblack4769]

Rampage look like a badass but he is so nice and funny. lol

[@paultannerwork]

Looks like hes been going on a rampage at the all you can eat buffet

[@Cutlass_Rudd]

Still the realest and funniest cat to ever enter the octagon, bar none.

[@brokenfunny1419]

There's a certain chemistry between mma journalists and fighters that other sport interviewers don't have(especially these two) that really makes you feel the love they truly have for the art

[@Calel_S]

God damn, Rampages head and neck is huge! Lookin healthy and strong og! I hope u get a strong W and even out the score with Wanderlei champ!

[@nemosparadise9442]

I use to not like rampage but now I realize who and what he is. A legend

[@frankr9348]

My man Rampage looking THICC

[@TheDrRelish]

He's such a dad now! Honestly just comes across as much more responsible than his younger years.

[@aper422]

I still wanna see rampage vs James toney for the heavyweight belt

[@davidwhitehouse8920]

Rampage has got a neck like a cake!!!🌈👊

[@grantbattane1981]

I sleep with TV on too... Rampage will always be my favorite MMA fighter... Conor and Nate are close but Rampage is the man

[@Syko1985]

Let's take a moment to respect that Rampage fought both Liddell and Wandy in the same night when they were both in their prime.

[@320speed]

Any interview with Rampage is just fun to watch. Always make me laugh

[@HbVki]

Rampage’s voice got fat 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
